Doremi Cinema introduces the new CaptiView Closed Caption Viewing System for hearing impaired movie audiences.
The CaptiView system transmits and receives AES-128 encrypted closed captions on a wireless band frequency. With an 80 meter signal range, CaptiView can be used from ANY seat in the house.
The CaptiView system consists of a small, OLED display on a bendable support arm that fits into the theater seat cup holder. The easy-to-read screen is equipped with a rechargable Lithium Ion battery that lasts over 24 hours of continuous use per charge. The high contrast display comes with a privacy visor so it can be positioned directly in front the movie patron with minimal impact or distraction to neighboring patrons.
CaptiView is economically priced to allow the cinema owner to outfit 100% of the multiplex. It runs on the existing Doremi Cinema digital cinema server, so no additional hardware is required. It supports SMPTE and Cinecanvas packages, and can support up to four languages simultaneously.

    Isn’t this the same system that I saw at NATO (Lake Geneva, Wis.) back in May of 2008? What took so long?

      This video is form 2010, and also, the standards for how the closed captions was only really finalised in the last year, so it may have been around but not really used as none of the SMS had implemented the accepted standard on how the data gets out of the SMS and these system like this can display it…

    I just want to say that this is totally freakin’ awesome! Hopefully all theaters will get these. This is the best thing that has been made available to the hearing impaired! I love it! Used one for the first time last week. Way better than the Rear View Captioning!

    Why no closed caption this video for hearing impaired? Looks like it is for hearing person who don’t have hearing aids.
